Well it seems like just when i thought we were cruising along at a good pace
with Grabby Gabby she went and threw us a curveball. the little turkey has
decided to start having seizures she ended up in the ER of the hospital on
Friday afternoon, after being taken by ambulance from school, i guess its to
be expected but she hasn't really had anything too serious since last summer,
She had 6 back to back last August and we ended up in the ER of the Children's
Hospital. But nothing since this time though it seems from what her teacher
and EA described it almost sounded like a small stroke, but she recouped fairly
quickly and was back to her normal self within a couple of hours. the last
"seizure" included loss of bowels and bladder, and her curling up into the
tightest ball that i've ever seen her in. and trembling, this time they
described paraliysis to the right side of her face and body, her tongue stuck
really far out of her mouth and went to the one side, and she was shaking, and
then right out of it into a deep sleep. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated,
She has had a couple of EEG's done but nothing has ever shown up, and we are
still waiting for an MRI. She sees the nuerologist on Tues.
